>> Production of fibreglass reinforced
plastic profiles with our computer-controlled pultrusion system
|
|
Our expertise
at TTI includes market-oriented product development, developing
innovative production methods and facilities, and conducting tests
of materials and products.
Our profiles are fabricated by pultrusion,
an automated process for manufacturing composite materials into
continuous, constant cross-sectional profiles. Pultrusion is suitable
for mass production.
|
|
At TTI we also develop and produce innovative
materials using renewable resources.
In addition to
carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fibre reinforced
polymer (GFRP) our product range also includes natural fibre reinforced
profiles.

A brand new technology (Radius-Pultrusion)
enables the continuous manufacture of curved reinforced profiles
from endless fibres and webbing. This modification of the well known
pultrusion process makes it possible to produce endless circles
and arches of any radius and lead- for example for the design of
springs. It allows nearly unlimited application of fibre re-enforced
materials for engineers and architects. The profiles can be reinforced
by endless fibres unidirectional or with help of webbings or nettings
in a bidirectional way. When using a bidirectional reinforcement
the strict orientation of the fibres can only be provided on the
level that is vertical to the deflection level. For all other areas,
e.g. partition walls, formable webbings, or nettings have to be
used.

During its first steps in the public at the Materialica fair, this
technology won several prizes: Not only the "Materialica Design
+ Technology Award 2008" but the "Best of Surface/Technology"
Award also. The story of success continued. In 2009 this technology
was nominated as a finalist for the JEC Innovation Award.
